Original Flow Control Pouring Medium

From R 110.00

Availability:

  • Original Flow Control Pouring Medium is a fluid art medium that increases the flow of paints used in all acrylic pouring techniques. It increases gloss and durability and resists crazing and cracking. It does not generate cells on its own. In traditional techniques it is used as the sole pouring medium together with Turbo Cell (if cells are required). In techniques that do not use oily cell forming chemicals, it is mixed with all paints that are not mixed with one of our other specialised Flow Control Products.

Original Flow Control

We now manufacture four Pouring Mediums used in fluid art. These are called:
 
  • Original Flow Control
  • Cell Activator Flow Control
  • Cloud & Pearl Flow Control 
  • Metallic Paint Flow Control 
Our Acrylic Pouring Paints are usually thinned by mixing them with our Original Flow Control in a ratio of 1:1 by volume. When an even higher flow is required, do not add extra Original Flow Control but add a little water (always stir water in well). You can also use our Bright Neon/UV Paints in the same way for Acrylic Pouring.
 
Note that our Metallic Paints should be mixed with our Metallic Paint Flow Control to achieve the required flow. They should not be mixed with Original Flow Control. 
 
Original Flow Control is not formulated to generate cells on its own. 
 

Traditional Pouring Techniques require our Original Flow Control, Acrylic Pouring Paints and an Oily Cell Former

Traditional techniques include flip cup pours, straight pours, dirty pours, puddle pours, ring pours, marble pours, dipping pours, open cup pours, kiss pours, string and chain pull pours, split cup pours, swipes, Dutch pours and others. There are numerous variations of these techniques, many of which have their own names. To form cells in most of these techniques, add a little silicone or Turbo Cell to some or all of the colours after mixing the paints with our Original Flow Control. Don’t stir much after adding the cell forming chemical, usually just a ‘swirl’ is optimum.

Pouring Techniques that generate cells without oily additives require our Original Flow Control, Acrylic Pouring Paints and one of our other specialised Flow Control products

Our specialised Flow Control products form cells without oily additives in specific techniques. These techniques include Sheleeart Bloom Techniques, Cloud Techniques and Pearl Techniques. 

In these techniques only some paints are mixed with our Cell Activator Flow Control or our Cloud & Pearl Flow Control. The rest of the paints excluding our metallic paints, are mixed with Original Flow Control.
